Sarah Bickle
Registered Psychotherapist, MPsy., R.P.
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. I know how difficult it can be to navigate the complexities of life, especially when trauma, relationships, or identity issues weigh heavy on your heart. I’m here to offer you a safe, affirming space where you can begin the process of healing, at your own pace, and on your own terms.
Whether you’re navigating the aftermath of sexual trauma, exploring your LGBTQ+ identity, or simply seeking to understand the patterns in your life that no longer serve you, I am committed to walking beside you through every step of the journey. You don’t have to do this alone. In therapy with me, you’ll experience a unique blend of evidence-based therapies, creative techniques, and a deeply empathetic, collaborative approach. I’ll work with you to find what resonates, whether it’s EMDR, psychodynamic exploration, somatic therapy, meditation, or a combination of tools that evolve as your needs shift. My work is rooted in trauma-informed care, meaning I always respect your pace, your boundaries, and your journey. We’ll create a space where your healing is not just possible, but empowered.
I offer flexible evening and late-night sessions, making it easier for you to prioritize your well-being—even with a busy schedule. My online practice allows me to meet you where you are, whether that’s through Zoom or telephone, and I’m fully committed to being present with you during our sessions—so you get the support you deserve when you need it most.
With over a decade in mental health, I’ve had the privilege of working with a diverse range of individuals. From my early days supporting Haitian refugees abroad, to my experience working with neurodiverse young adults and seniors, I have helped people from many walks of life navigate complex emotions, trauma, and identity. While I specialize in sexual trauma and LGBTQ+ care, I believe healing is unique to each person—and I’m here to support you, no matter your background, experience, or life stage. Whether you’re exploring deep emotional patterns, working through trauma, or seeking more connection in your relationships, I’m committed to adapting my approach to meet your needs and helping you move forward at your own pace.
If you’re ready to begin this journey, take the first step today—together, we’ll find the path that works best for you. I’m here to help you heal, grow, and thrive.

Rising Calm Center
Professional Christian Counsellor, MS, CMHC, CLC
Life can feel so heavy when anxiety won’t let your mind rest, when fear wakes you at night, or when stress and self-doubt erode your confidence and faith. When burnout creeps in and relationships begin to crack, holding it all together can start to feel overwhelming.
At Rising Calm Center, we understand that weight. Our Christian counselors help young professionals, couples, and families find calm, rebuild trust, and walk in the peace Jesus promised—rather than performing under the pressures this world demands.
We integrate faith-based wisdom with evidence-based care, drawing from CBT, DBT, IFS, ACT, Gottman, EFT, Narrative Therapy, trauma-informed work, tapping, and breathwork. This combination helps you retrain your nervous system, heal emotional and spiritual wounds, and live with genuine peace.
Clients often come to us struggling with anxiety, insomnia, panic attacks, grief, burnout, relationship conflict, or a sense of spiritual disconnection. Here, you’ll find compassion, honesty, and practical tools to feel safe in your body and centered in your spirit again.
What we offer:
• Free consultations for new clients — relief can start now
• Same-week availability, including evenings (Mon–Thu until 8 p.m.)
• Sliding-scale rates for affordable care
• In-person, telehealth, or phone sessions
You don’t have to face the storm alone. There is calm on the other side—and together, we can find it.

Sanofer Ansari
Licensed Mental Health Counsellor, MACP
Therapy, to me, is a space where you don’t have to have everything figured out or carry everything on your own. It is a place to pause, feel heard, understand what you’re experiencing, and gently make sense of what may have been difficult to express or process. My approach is trauma-informed and emotion-focused, recognizing that our emotions, relationships, past experiences, and cultural backgrounds all shape how we navigate life. I aim to create a compassionate, non-judgmental space where you can feel understood, reconnect with yourself, and move toward greater self-awareness, emotional well-being, and meaningful change.
